Properties

Annotation — Descriptive comment about object array

N-by-1 string array

Descriptive comment about the object array shown as part of its compact display representation, specified as an N-by-1 string array. The shape of Annotation depends on the display layout:

• Single-line layout — A string scalar

• Columnar layout — An N-by-1 array of string scalars, where N is the number of rows in the object array

Attributes:

GetAccess	public
SetAccess	immutable

PaddedDisplayOutput — Finalized padded display text

N-by-1 string array

Finalized padded display text, specified as an N-by-1 string array. The shape of PaddedDisplayOutput depends on the display layout:

• Single-line layout — A padded string scalar

• Columnar layout — An N-by-1 array of padded string scalars, where N is the number of rows in the object array

Attributes:

GetAccess	public

CharacterWidth — Character width of finalized padded display text

N-by-1 numeric array

Character width of the finalized padded display text, specified as a numeric array. The shape of CharacterWidth depends on the display layout:

• Single-line layout — A numeric scalar

• Columnar layout — An N-by-1 array of numeric scalars, where N is the number of rows in the object array
